That would be bloody frustrating Grog & hope you get some response from the arseholes. It's a pity they push people to this extent, just to get what they have payed for and deserve.
I'm sure if it was their own home, they had to live in like that, it would be sorted out in 2 weeks.

Sorry to hear this Grog, but its how they work. If one out of ten put there insurance claim in the too hard basket......big saving for insurance company.
A sign on your front lawn advising everyone of the insurance companies name and their lack of interest might prompt some action.

You've got my sympathy for sure. I've been in a similar situation a few years back when our house was flooded. It's incredibly stressful. Luckily our insurance company wasn't too bad to deal with, but I still had issues with builders and so on (long story).

In times of crisis, people can sometimes be magnificent and restore your faith in humanity. Unfortunately, as someone else pointed out here, they can also be arseholes.

I hope your plan to name and shame them bears fruit, good luck.

That's a real pisser Grog, these buggers are all too keen to take your money but a bit slow when it comes to giving a bit back, bastards

3 months today since my house got wrecked. today finally signed repair order. action should happen now. just on 70grand to repair without internal stuff.

Wow is that what a quadruple garage / workshop with triple bike lifts and full Snap-on kit costs?

[grog]

I wish Speedy. Shed just gets 2 new doors and barge board. Its 65 sq metres, concrete floor so not too bad. Was actually the local butcher shop in 1950s, cant find any photos unfortunately.

Thats an upside to all the drama , hassle and delays. Make the most of it. Dont normally hear of having a holiday on an insurance company.
